Product Overview
• Anatomical Shape with Lock-in Flanges
• Biocompatible, PEEK Radiolucence (invisible on x-ray)
• X-ray Markers for Placement Confirmation
The PitStop Implant is made of PEEK. This biocompatible and inert polymer is flexible, which allows for placement in the sinus tarsi with better load distribution on bone surfaces versus stiffer materials such as titanium and stainless steel.
The PitStop Subtalar Implant facilitates the correction of pes plano valgus deformities.
X-RAY MARKERS
Two X-Ray markers made of tantalum are located at each end of the implant to help guide the positioning of the implant
LOCK-IN FLANGES
Lock-in flanges, (small blades) are designed to provide primary stability in the sinus tarsi.
ANATOMICAL SHAPE
The anatomical shape with the two symmetrical and flattened sides are designed to reduce the compressive constraints and to improve distribution of stress. This may help to decrease incidence of reactive synovitis and improve patient tolerance.
CANNULATED IMPLANT
The PitStop is cannulated to facilitate and secure accurate positioning of the implant over a guide wire.
IMPLANT-INSTRUMENT ASSEMBLY
The easy keyed insertion device allows for a tight assembly between the implant and the instrument.
